Hi Javelin and welcome. No wine recipes I'm afraid, but I do love rhubarb. I'm planning to bottle some soon - my first attempt at bottling!

"Anyone can achieve their fullest potential. Who we are might be predetermined, but we should never allow our fears, or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny. Our destiny cannot be changed but it can be challenged: Every man is born as many men, but dies a single one." -Timothy McGee (NCIS)

Will certainly do a thread about it - it'll probably be half term now. By the way, i found a brilliant website called Instructables http://www.instructables.com/which is where I found the instructions for bottling. It's a bit like YouTube only with a series of pictures rather than a video. I've got all the kit, I've got the rhubarb (which has been loving all the recent rain) - all I need now is a bit of time and the oomph to be brave and get going and not worry if it all goes wrong the first time!
